DemonRage Posted October 1, 2001 Ok, i am at my aunts for a few months looking for work. The computer is a p2-350 w/64mb ram and a rage IIC card. it supports d3d only. is there any doom add-ons similar to gldoom or gllegacy that use d3d rather then opengl or support both. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lord FlatHead Posted October 1, 2001 Nope, don't think so. Direct3D is crap anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post
Katarhyne Posted October 2, 2001 Direct3D doesn't suck. Quit saying things as if you know what you're talking about. Yes, there are several Direct3D doom ports, most notably, Jdoom and Vavoom. 0 Share this post Link to post
Katgut Posted October 2, 2001 Use JDoom, at least it doesn't have most of the problems that Vavoom does. Unfortunately, it takes a while before you realize that you really DO have to increase the zone on it... (-maxzone 192M is a good idea) 0 Share this post Link to post
deadnail Posted October 2, 2001 You mean JDoom. (period <- holy Christ, I spelled it right this time!) Vavoom eats a bag of Hell. I've never been able to get the damn thing to run and I'm not going to GL-node one of my iwads. 0 Share this post Link to post

Katarhyne Posted October 2, 2001 Vavoom r0x0rz your c0x0r. And GLBSPing your IWADS doesn't take long at all. It's GLVIS-ing Gothic99.wad. >_< Took like 9 hours on a 2.4Ghz P4 and like 7 on a 1.9Ghz Athlon. 0 Share this post Link to post
LorD BaZTArD Posted October 2, 2001 Well, hmm. I was gonna post this last night. but I got disconnected before I could post. THE best, bar none, is Jdoom. It's the best looking port, and one of the only ones with Direct3D. I dunno about Vavoom, I played it once, and was impressed until I got the latest of every other port availabe. Bu-bye vavoom. Don't come back. The only problem with Jdoom is that it has no other "features" like 3D floors, and stuff like that. Although SkyJake's main objective was to bring the Doom Engined games upto decent standards. Which he has done. He seems to be working on dehacked support and XG sector types. could be good. STAY AWAY FROM THE MD2's! The latest pack is okayish. the HUD weapons are decent but most of it is still crap. JDoom still ownz tho. Flathead. Direct3D sucks? Not really, I try to use Direct3D over OpenGL at the moment becuase I get better results than GL. That's just my opinion tho. Direct3D is good enough. 0 Share this post Link to post

LorD BaZTArD Posted October 3, 2001 What, so you prefer I write one whole sentence that you have to scroll sideways for hours to read? No. (Actually, I'm not sure that's possible, but I could try.........nah...I wont) I just press enter when I want to start a new line. I am allowed to. What if I complained when YOU did something I don't like? (My post count will overtake Lüt's in seconds!) (Naw......Just kidding) 0 Share this post Link to post
Arioch Posted October 3, 2001 I'd like to take this moment and note that even The John Carmack Himself isn't ripping Direct3D like he used to do. Direct3D improves by leaps and bounds every time MS releases a new DirectX and development package. 0 Share this post Link to post

de_zeurkous Posted October 5, 2001 Doom95 uses Direct3D, ZDooM uses Direct3D... etc. etc. etc. But Direct3D sux really, becuz it screws up my 24 and 32-bit video modes in the game Unreal(way off topic :) De Zeurkous ----------- Friggin' Machines! 0 Share this post Link to post
Sephiroth Posted October 5, 2001 doom95 is horrible, i think he wants the 3D card effects not software mode, almost everything uses direct 3d but many of those programs display in software mode. OpenGL is far better, i am sure the card supports opengl, try geting a drvier. I have never heard of a card being only direct3d, because direct3d is software just as opengl. If the card cant use opengl it may mean the card is shit and can only run things in software mode. 0 Share this post Link to post
